I think I would write to Kato, USA and see what response they give you first. They may want you to send the model back to them for repair. If you break it trying to remove the screws, they may not want to replace it because of abuse. Put it away and give them a few weeks to respond to your inquiry.
Thanks Guys for the help and replies
Russ, this is a good idea and exactly what i am going to do
If i damage that loco, and they say they wont tough it because of the abuse, then i certainly will not be a happy camper 
lol
